From Ireland to Palestine to Learn Arabic

Jennifer Muller, an Irish student of Arabic who arrived in Palestine today will learn Arabic at the Excellence Center participating in the Study Arabic Intensive Program. Ms. Muller will stay with a Palestinian host family and engage in many cultural and community activities during the week.

“My main motivation is to learn enough Arabic to follow conversations and read the news in Arabic. Perhaps that’s a little optimistic in a week! Other motivations including learning more about Palestine, Palestinian people and customs. I feel honoured to be living in someone’s home and look forward to meeting the family on Saturday”.
